If the catch is that the man has no eyes, then it's a terrible brain teaser.

And/Or it was a plum tree.
Here's a couple that I'm sure some of you probably know, but for those that don't:
1:You're stuck in a prison cell. There are no doors. There is a table and a chair. There is a window far, far up on one of the walls. The window is too small for you to fit through. How do you escape?
2:You're in a room which has two exits, one leading to freedom, the other, a horrible death. There is one guard in front of each door. You know that one guard always tells the truth, the other, nothing but lies. You can ask ONE question to only ONE of the guards. What question do you ask, and to which guard?

In number 2, you ask any of the guards to what is equal one plus one. If he answers incorrectly, he's the lier.

Okay, so you know which one is the liar. Now which door do you take?

I remember now "What would the other guards answer be to the question what door is save?"
